3D Character Artist, VNGGames

- Model low- to mid-poly characters based on provided concept or base mesh. 

- Perform basic retopology and UV unwrapping. 

- Use sculpting tools (ZBrush/Blender) for simple forms with supervision Export assets to engine with basic material setup.

- Sculpt high-poly characters with strong anatomy and appeal.

- Retopology and UV for optimal deformation and texturing. 

- Create efficient topology for animation (edge flow, joint bends). 

- Bake normal, AO, and displacement maps. 

- Mentor character modelers and provide feedback across projects. 

- Supervise outsource vendors (if any) for character production.

- Build modular systems: shared topology, outfit variations, accessory workflows. 

- Set up naming conventions and export standards. 

- Establish character creation pipeline from sculpt → rig → export.

- Define art style consistency across character assets (hero, NPC, enemy). 

- Utilize AI tools to speed up modeling, retopology, and texture generation (e.g., AI UV unwrap, Smart Materials, Generative Textures). 

- Integrate AI-based procedural tools into DCC software Collaborate with Tech Art to build automated system Define and lead the AI strategy for 3D workflows across the studio.

- Collaborate with designers, programmers, and other artists to ensure seamless integration of 3D assets into the game Maintain a consistent art style and quality across all projects. 

- Stay up-to-date with the latest trends and techniques in 3D art.
